Mommy, she said, "Can you help me with a costume?...

I picked the EASIEST one!"

Yeah, right!

I did it half by machine half hand sewn.

This was all to watch a symphony!

Which by the way was FANTASTIC!

Orchestra seats!

Distant Worlds: Music from Final Fantasy

Performed by The Florida Orchestra

conducted by Arnie Roth.

at the Mahaffey Theater in St. Petersburg, FL.

The special 30th anniversary performance

was attended by composer Nobou Uematsu!

I also had the honor of getting a picture with Ben Pila,

Only guitarist ever to be named a Presidential Scholar in the Arts!

So exciting!

I had a fabulous time with family.

On the picture below,

The costume on the right was store bought.

The one one on the left is handmade.

How do you think I did?

Where did the Months go?

2018-01-11T18:52:00.000-05:00

It's been a while since I've blogged.

...and alot has happened since.

After starting the Young & Young at Heart Chapter

Brighter Lipstick, Bigger Earrings, Inc.

I was able to facilitate some workshops

at the University of Florida and Florida Community College in Jacksonville

and also a couple of small private parties.

We even welcomed an earring angel from up north
who sends us completed earrings already packaged up!

Before the holidays we were welcomed by
Florida Cancer Specialists & Research Institute in Gainesville

and we delivered our earring tree just in time for the holidays.

This coming Thursday, January 18
we will have our first meet and greet
at the Millhopper Branch Library at 6PM!
(click her for more information from our FB page!)

All are welcome and we would love to see you there!
We need to replenish our tree!
No skill necessary as we will teach you.
Please bring some beads or findings to share
and we'd love to receive any broken, used, old jewelries that can be recycled!

Students can receive volunteer credit for their time!
We are excited!
See you there!

Brighter Lipstick, Bigger Earrings

2017-07-14T23:35:00.001-04:00

I am so excited to announce that I have partnered with UF’s Pre-Dental Society
and will be starting the Gainesville Young and Young at Heart chapter
of the Brighter Lipstick, Bigger Earrings Inc.!

BLBE is a registered non-profit organization founded by Pam Sawyer
who was diagnosed with aggressive Stage 3 breast cancer in 2014.

On the day of her first chemo treatment session, her nurse said to her,

“Pam, you’ll be just fine as long as you wear brighter lipstick and bigger earrings!”

-A statement that she would not forget.

While undergoing chemo treatments,
she discovered kindness and happiness in many ways.
Remembering what her nurse said,

she took on the idea of bringing her learned craft of making earrings

to give to chemo patients at her infusion center.

The earrings became a small treat for the patients to brighten up what could be a bleak day.

The earrings became such a hit that Pam had to gather the help of friends and sister to make more.
Trees were purchased to hold the many earrings that the ladies would create for the patients.

The patients are then able to choose a pair to have for free-

just to enjoy having something new and beautiful.

Since then, earring trees can be found in infusion centers

throughout central Florida down to Boca Raton and in Pittsburg, PA.

2 years ago, UF’s Pre Dental Society started the Gainesville chapter

with students making and replenishing the earring trees.

There are currently 4 trees in Gainesville:

2 at Shands, 1 at the VA and 1 at North Florida Regional Hospital.

Today, I have been given the fantastic opportunity by Pam

to start and coordinate the Gainesville Young and Young at Heart
of the Gainesville chapter of BLBE.

My goal is to not only help the Pre-Dental Society group

but to strengthen the Brighter Lipstick, Bigger Earrings Program

while creating an outlet for middle and highschool students to volunteer
and for others to come and engage as well.

I believe that Brighter Lipstick, Bigger Earrings can provide a fantastic venue

for the young and young at heart to engage and work together for a great cause.

I cannot wait to see the interactions and the friendships formed!

At this time, I am seeking donations of jewelry tools to be used by the volunteers here in Gainesville

and to purchase findings since the hook and clips that go in/on the ear will need to be NEW.

Of course, we also welcome any types of beads either new or old jewelry for us to recycle.

We welcome volunteers of ALL AGES, backgrounds and talents.

If you have never made an earring in your life,

do not worry as you will be taught the techniques!

If you don’t want to make earrings but have marketing and communication skills,
social media advertising and web design, we can also use you!

Oh, and did I mention that you can earn volunteer credits for helping??

Lastly, if you have a venue that you are able to provide for our use, please let me know!

Come and Be an Angel...help us share beauty with cancer warriors!

By the way, Pam's story? You can read about it HERE!

It has a happy ending! ;)

Two In One!

2017-07-11T07:39:00.003-04:00

Did I already tell you how much I love my old students?!

There is never a time where I am not touched by their remembrance.

After so many hours of

working and listening and crying and laughing with them

throughout their years of college

I cannot help but refer to them as my "kids".

...and I am honored when they give me a title of "second mom"

or "mom away from home".

This everyday contact with them is what I miss the most.

So it is heartwarming,

that although I only teased them about sending me a postcard

from wherever they are in the world,

when they actually do!

When I receive my handwritten surprise in the mail,

the acts of buying the card, writing and then sending the card

while they are on their vacations

are meaningful acts that are very much noted by me.

Today I got a two in one!

And his messages just made me smile first thing this morning.

(I didn't realize that I had mail from yesterday

I got home late last night and went straight to bed.)

What a wonderful start to a day.

....and this can only mean that I have to continue the gesture to someone else.

So to my chosen person who will be receiving

a surprise hand written note from me,

comment below and share your thoughts

when you receive your surprise in the mail.

....it's the little things!

Anniversary/Vow Renewal Quilt

2017-06-23T23:49:00.002-04:00

Last week I was honored to have been invited

to a vow renewal ceremony of two wonderful friends.

The ceremony was also the day before their 30th anniversary.

Of course I wanted to make them an anniversary quilt.

Their invitation was in reds and creams with just a tad of green for leaves.

I knew that I was going to make a heart...

and of course it is to be designed free.... and without a pattern.

a little wonky... but good enough. ;)

Choosing the fabrics for the milestone pictures to go along with the heart was a little tough.

But I think it turned out pretty okay.

The pictures I chose are of the two of them through the years.

Added by a couple of milestone events.

I know that they already received and opened it.

Which is why I am blogging about it now. ;)

It is quilted together with hearts and the word love throughout.

I really enjoyed making this quilt.

Even the binding wasn't too bad... LOL

Here's the back. I didnt cut off my son smiling at the top holding the corner.;)

Turned out pretty good I think..

Not bad for not having a pattern!

Finished Quilt: 77" x 79"

M J G Custom Quilt

2017-06-19T23:15:00.000-04:00

As you can see by his birth date,

he just received the quilt for his first birthday.

I think he likes it!

What do you think?

***

This quilt order started out as an email as so:

Hi Ellen!
Here are the pictures that I could find of him as a little baby (only 4 of him by himself)

and then the 1 picture of XX and I with him can be used on the back of the quilt.
His full name is XXX XXX XXX and was born on June 13th 2016.

Colors navy blue, Kelly green and gray please!

Let me know what else you need :)

Thank you!

I then printed out the photo transfers

and chose the fabrics based on her color request.

Then decided on the design layout.

As you can see, I had a couple of layout options.

When I decided on what looked pleasing enough

then it was time to piece and then on to the quilting.

Here's the back.

Sorry for the smudging but I wanted to honor their privacy... ;)

Finished Quilt: ( I lost dimensions! Will post as soon as I receive. )

Special shout out to the hubs for being patient

as he stretched and tip toed while he held the quilt for my photo shoot!

Love and Passion Completed!

2017-05-19T23:32:00.004-04:00

Do you remember when I posted this inspiration piece?

I talked about it click here.

(I'm sorry I cannot credit the designer as it was a picture that was sent to me.)

When I received the picture,

I was not surprised at all with the colors that she chose.

As soon as I saw it, I immediately thought of love and passion.

Very "her".

So here is my interpretation.

For those that don't know,

I have been making keepsake bouquets for a while now...

This one was especially fun since it is not the typical colors.

She got married the past weekend.

Congratulations C and O!!!

Many, many blessings to both of you!

Alexander Quilt

2017-04-28T13:58:00.002-04:00

The nursery colors are blue and green to mimic the globe.

The theme is "Oh the Places you will go!".

I started with a light background
to contrast the purple letters of his name.

I wanted his name to stand out
so I wanted it different from the rest of the other letters.

Then I started on the globe.
The actual sphere and map was not difficult.
But the metal stand that holds the globe was crazy hard!

I wasted about 2 yards of fusible stabilizer and fabric.
I did it 3 times before I finally got it to look decent.

The red lettering was another issue.
I learned my lesson.
I will never again have so many letters in a quilt.
and at that small font size! O_O

Then the quilting.
Just a simple meander stitch.

Here's the back.
(name crossed out for security reasons)

Don't mind the hubby at the back. LOL!

Finished quilt: 51" x 45"

Guess What's For Lunch... and for Dinner?

2017-04-14T10:25:00.000-04:00

Remember the garden survivors from the brief frost we had?

I talked about it on my last post (click here).

Well look how GINORMOUS (yes, it's a word.... in my dictionary. ;oP)

they are now!

... and they are in containers!

To give you perspective,

here is how large the leaves are compared to my hand.

...and its babies?...

these don't look like babies...

..and no folks, these aren't watermelon.

(at least that's what the nursery said! O_O)

But for dinner tonight?

We are having broccoli!

The florets are a little on the small side...

But it's plenty enough for a family of 4!

S2 loves it with melted cheddar.

...and for lunch?

I'm going to satisfy my udon craving...

After all, I just harvested my first ever bokchoy!!

They Survived!

2017-03-26T15:02:00.000-04:00

Ahhh Florida!

I really thought that my veggies that I planted

before the last frost were not going to make it!

And although my okra did not make it

and my more mature basil, my squashes survived!

and so did my tomatoes. ;)

and the broccoli!

Did you know that brocolli leaves are edible?

Can't wait to make some broccoli pesto! YUM!

Belated Birthday Blues

2017-02-11T18:10:00.002-05:00

I honestly didn't have a story or a quote about this post.

Not because there aren't any...

but because I just do not know what to pick

out of all that is out there....

ACB is one of my dearest friends.

He is family.

The reasoning for this coverlette is another story onto itself.

But I will let him tell you that story himself...

Blue is his favorite color.

This crochet project covers a queen size bed.

It took me 9 months to make.

I think he likes it.

What do you think?

Eye Study

2017-01-16T08:18:00.000-05:00

The eyes are considered as one of the most wonderful things we have.

With our eyes, we could see the beauty of our world and other things.

Sometimes, you can also tell how a person feels

through his or her eyes

whether sadness, happiness, or sometimes even lies.

It is no wonder why,

that the eyes are said to be

the open windows to the soul of a person.

Have you ever just stared at the stars

Curious as to its hidden secrets?

Have you ever just talked to the universe

To all of you that are reading this....

to all of you that are in need...
to those yearning for clarity...
for you that feel alone...

May this new year bring you all of your heart's desires.
May it bring you all the love and happiness that you deserve.
May the moon bring to you

Wishing all of you a joyous and prosperous 2017!

The Lion and the Mouse

A Lion lay asleep in the forest, his great head resting on his paws.

A timid little Mouse came upon him unexpectedly,

and in her fright and haste to get away,

ran across the Lion's nose.

Roused from his nap,

the Lion laid his huge paw angrily on the tiny creature to kill her.

"Spare me!" begged the poor Mouse.

"Please let me go and some day I will surely repay you."

The Lion was much amused to think that a Mouse could ever help him.

But he was generous and finally let the Mouse go.

Some days later,

while stalking his prey in the forest,

the Lion was caught in the toils of a hunter's net.

Unable to free himself, he filled the forest with his angry roaring.

The Mouse knew the voice and quickly found the Lion struggling in the net.

Running to one of the great ropes that bound him,

she gnawed it until it parted, and soon the Lion was free.

"You laughed when I said I would repay you," said the Mouse.

"Now you see that even a Mouse can help a Lion."

-Aesop's Fables

The Truth is like a lion.
You don't have to defend it.

R1's Tree

2016-12-10T10:39:00.000-05:00

There are 5 "suha" (pommelo) trees in our little orchard.

This website (click here) talks extensively about its medicinal value.

This blog (click here) talks about its folklore.

Here are some excerpts from the posts:

Philippine

Legend has it that the town of Lucban in Quezon Province in the Philippines derived its name from lukban or pomelo tree. The legend tells of three hunters who, while resting under a large shady lukban tree, got fascinated by the beautiful color and lovely rhythmic chirps of kingfishers (birds). The superstitious hunters took the incident as a sign of good fortune and decided to settle in the place and named it “Lucban.

Japanese

The Japanese refer to the pomelo as buntan or zabon after the name of Cantonese captain Sha Buntan, who is said to have introduced the fruit in Japan in the late 1700s while, on the other hand, the fruit is known as yòuzi in Chinese. A variety referred to as the “honey pomelo” is called pinghe pao which is said to have originated from the Ming Dynasty around 1528. The story tells of a Mr Xipu who owned an orchard and was fond of cultivating fruit trees but his orchard was destroyed by a flash flood and only a pomelo tree was left standing after the flood. He cultivated this pomelo tree which eventually bore fruits which were “very big with golden skin”. When the fruits were finally harvested, Mr Xipu opened one and found a shiny, transparent flesh which tasted as sweet as honey and had very few seeds. Thus, this variety was named “honey pomelo” thereafter.

Chinese

The Chinese consider pomelo as the “fruit of reunion”. It is among the traditional food being served during the mid-autumn festival or mooncake festival because it has a round shape and the sweet fruit is believed to scare off evil. In ritual baths, the Chinese boil the skins and the leaves of the pomelo to “ritually cleanse a person and repel evil”.

***

Grown from seed, Daddy planted them and named each one for his 5 grandchildren.

Every time he came to visit, he would check up on his trees.

Excited last year that one of them bore some fruits.

I talked about it click here.

Coincidentally, it is R1, the first grandchild and tree to bear fruits.

We harvested the fruits yesterday, afraid of the frost.

Daddy was so excited.

The fruits are as big as his head!

He wanted to count each and every single one of them.

He counted a total of 107

not counting some of the earlier harvests

to check if they were ready for picking

and the one left that was too high to pick..

...and when he was all done,

of course he had to taste

I love my home and gardens...

each tree full of meaning.

Each harvest a wonderful memory.

Truly looking forward to many more happy memories and

fruitful harvests!

Adventure 10- Mindfulness

2016-11-20T20:54:00.003-05:00

My 10th adventure proposal came like this:

Dear Ellen, So here's my suggested adventure. When I read your request for adventures, I immediately envisioned a far away place or a secret destination.
But the more I thought about it, the more I recognized that no matter where you go...there YOU are.
It was something that a friend once shared with me.
So when I reconsidered this request again, I went inward.
I suggest with each of your adventures, you immerse yourself introspectively.
Find the meaning of life and peace through mindful activities.
Mindfulness is a state of active, open attention on the present.
When you are mindful, you observe your thoughts and feelings from a distance, without judging them good or bad.
Instead of letting your life pass you by, mindfulness means living in the moment and awakening to experience. Steps toward mindfulness. Learn how to meditate; take yoga class; or elicit the knowledge of Thierry by convening a group of ladies (me included, of course) to host a Wellness weekend Retreat.. learn more about energy and meditation. Consider this as you begin of your 50th birthday celebration year. Thank you for considering my suggestion. Mindfully yours,C.

So last weekend during the strongest phasing of the super moon,

I went to a yoga workshop led by a friend.

Everything about this workshop spoke of me...
The theme of Harvesting the Season...
the energies brought by all the watery planets' activities...
the moon's entrance into Taurus
bringing illumination and a calming effect,
and clarity and closure to questions.

But most importantly, bringing to me the importance of life...
Family and dear friends.

Eerily all of these hit my being..
So strong that despite all the opposing powers,
I felt only serenity.

A deep calm that shows me the beauty
and endless abundance of my many blessings.

**
I thank you C, for this beautiful adventure proposal...
and am glad that I was able to share with you a small part of the weekend.

...and most of all to all my beautiful friends...
brothers and sisters of my universe
that made this adventure possible.

Thank you to Desilio and Szbadi yoga for the Harvest the Season retreat pictures.

Sweet Lemonade

2016-10-29T19:05:00.005-04:00

Whoever said that life only gave you lemons when times are bad is wrong!

As a matter of fact, it is when life is sweetest that life gives you the most...

Everything is a balance and the universe always tries to keep you centered.

There will always be both good and bad.

So when your boughs start to get heavy,

harvest the fruits!!

Because what you thought would be sour lemonade

would actually be the sweetest!!

Thanking the heavens for my blessings.
